Pros

Salary is good if you're starting out. Flexibility and WFH is okay, but depends on your manager, even though there's "official" company policy.

Cons

Management is a mess. Too many directors/upper management that are lost 80% of the time, and not enough actual team members to do the work. Lack of training. Lack of opportunity for advancement.

Pros

Best HR policies on weekends work, comp off and travel allowance on weekend works, diwali bonus, ayudha pooja gifts and amount. Leaves are plenty, 28 PL and 12 CL

Cons

If you believe only in your work for carrier growth then its tough. We need to make our Team leads as our best friend to get promotion. Even you might go 4 years straight without no change of position. No one will care about your position. You'll get into this company with very high salary and every year salary will keep increasing very much but that becomes a trap for us, we can't try to switch company if we want to, as no other company can provide more than what Valeo gives for your years of experience. So you get stuck and stagnanted here and that's when you'll realise how much advantage the company has taken on you. The work gets tougher and complicated and you might not like it but you have no choice as you can't go out due to the salary trap. Work life balance will get destroyed but still you can't go out due to salary trap. Mental health gets affected and that's why they conduct mental wellness sessions. They have a tie up with a stress counselling organisation which provides you free stress counselling session all because of the highest level of stress here. For salary we come but end up dead here.

Pros

I don't see any pros except for the salary and the benefits.

Cons

1. Very Very bad management : They treat you like a slave that should work for 24 hrs a day and in the weekends without complaining just because they planned it all wrong from the first place. They LOVE to acquire projects that they cannot affoard developing, they acquire the project and then search for engineers to load them with extra work , and if you just complained about it , you will be considered lazy and a BAD employee. 2. There is no technicality you will gain , they always like the old way , the old languages , and the old methods , you won't be updated with any new technolgies or even programming languages. 3. They concider the one who works till late hours is the perfect employee ,even if you were playing all day long and worked the last two hours. 4. internal movements are not that easy , even if you are accepted in another position , your manager can simply put that off for months and months , just beacuse "it's a business need".
